Q. Doctor, who would benefit from remote weight loss herbal medicine? Would you recommend it?

A.

I recommend it for those whose busy schedules make clinic visits difficult, or those who are exhausted from repeated dieting and wish to start cautiously. The key is tailoring the treatment to your body rather than starving yourself. However, if you have underlying conditions or take multiple medications, an in-person consultation is much safer for a thorough check-up.

📝 Detailed Answer

I have a personal experience where I tried to lose weight by simply starving myself out of sheer ambition. It left me feeling so dizzy that I couldn't function in my daily life. Because I've been through that 'trial and error,' I know for certain that eating as little as possible is not the answer. Remote prescriptions are ideal for the following groups: First, I recommend them for professionals who struggle to find time due to work. If scheduling an appointment and waiting at the clinic—even near Bulgwang Station—feels burdensome, a remote consultation is far more efficient. Second, it is perfect for those who need professional help with appetite control but feel shy or overwhelmed by the prospect of an in-person visit. From a Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) perspective, however, every individual has a different constitution. For example, those with a high accumulation of Phlegm-Fluid (Dam-eum, 痰飮) need a focus on improving circulation. Those with Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血) must prioritize resolving these blockages. Furthermore, if a patient is in a state of Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛) with poor digestive function, aggressively suppressing the appetite can lead to extreme fatigue. Rather than simply receiving medicine, it is crucial to first examine the balance of your body. Since detailed medical history taking (mun-jin) is possible remotely, I will provide a thorough guide to accurately assess your condition. Let's achieve healthy weight management with a prescription tailored specifically to your body.
